From the Doctor:

I have been in Jacksonville since 1993. I enjoy spending time boating on the St. Johns River with my wife and 3 children. I enjoy quiet afternoons at home working in the garden and skeet shooting with my son.

My philosophy of care centers on caring communication with families, providing close follow up and allowing my patients to grow up to their full potential.

I have been active in the Epilepsy Foundation of America and Northeast Florida and am on the executive committee of the parent association of the Bolles School.
